Wandboard

The Wandboard

The Wandboard is a Cortex-A9 ARM device sporting a single, dual, or quad core Freescale i.MX6 SoC. The design incorporates support for HDMI, gigabit ethernet, sound, SATA, WiFi, and Bluetooth (depending on the model). The platform is developed on a developed not-for-profit basis and is supported by engineers volunteering their time. With actual street prices ~10% lower than the suggested retail price, the Wandboard offers great value and performance.

 

The Goal

The goal of this site is to provide easy to deploy stock armhf embedded images that are very stable. The goal is not to provide the absolute latest kernels that may lack stability. This ease of deployment and stability enables the software engineer to focus on software development without the hassles of building operating systems and fussing with bleeding-edge kernel issues.


Ubuntu Trusty 14.04

This image uses the Ubuntu 14.04 core filesystem from Ubuntu with the minimal meta package applied. The kernel is compiled from the Wandboard fork of the mainline Linux kernel git repository. The result is an easy-to-install and stable Linux image.

Debian Wheezy 7.5

This image is based on the Debian Wheezy 7.2 core filesystem from Live-Build, with packages equivalent to the Ubuntu minimal meta package. The kernel is compiled from the Wandboard fork of the mainline Linux kernel git repository. The result is an easy-to-install and stable Linux image.
